MRC6011: Reconfigurable Compute Fabric Device ARCHIVED

Ushering in a new era in signal processing, the 24 Giga MACS MRC6011 is Our first Reconfigurable Compute Fabric (RCF) device. Ideally suited for MIPS-intensive, repetitive tasks, the MRC6011 offers a resource-efficient solution for computationally intensive applications, such as baseband processing for 2.5G and 3G basestations, broadband wireless access systems, and signal processing for advanced features such as Adaptive Antenna (AA) and Multi-User Detection (MUD). The highly programmable MRC6011 device offers system-level flexibility and scalability of a programmable DSP while zeroing in on the cost, power consumption, and processing capability of a traditional ASIC-based approach.

Key benefits of the RCF solution include:

• Up to 21.6 Giga 16-bit MACS of processing power at 225 MHz
• Up to 43.2 Giga 4-bit complex correlations per second at 225 MHz
• High throughput and specialized interfaces for basestation applications
• Programmability in C and assembly ensures:
  • Field-upgradability
  • Flexibility to support multiple standards
• Flexibility to add advanced features later
• Scalable architecture
• Glueless connectivity to industry-standard DSPs
• Software tools and application modules:
  • Metrowerks’ award-winning Integrated Development Environment (IDE)
  • Real-time debug capability for each RCF core

• Library of functions and modules for 3G baseband and other applications
